2. | This is an increase in the temperature of the earth’s surface. | This is an effect that causes Earth heating. |
Period |

3. | In the global warming, Earth’s temperature increases slowly. | In the greenhouse effect, Earth’s temperature increases faster. |

5. | Desert expansion, frequent weather, insect outbreaks and increased heat all the effects of global warming. | Desertification, flooding and climate change and respiratory diseases are the greenhouse effects. |
